Wait a minute. What is the real question?
Do you bid the equipment you want even if it means commuting for awhile, or do you bid the domicile you want even if it means you don't get the equipment you want?
That answer depends on if you desire the equipment or the domicile more.
Of course I could be completely misunderstanding the question.
Well if I wanted 76T outta EWR I think it would probably be quicker to bid the 76T outta another base instead of 737 EWR and wait for training. Less studying paid move etc. Do they still have paid moves. What about the piano tuning that was in the contract years ago? Do they give yo PS tickets for 6 months on a paid move?
What ever base I bid I have to commute so for me 6 day trips means less nights in a cheap hotel or crash pad. 2 days off in a row is a no go thing, did it for years and it sucked I was never at home.
I just want to wait a while longer so I don't get the third furlough!!
